Working Principle

The SI5338C-B05-GMR features a differential input structure which allows the device to sample and synthesize two output frequencies. The differential inputs require two voltage rails, typically 3.3V or 2.5V. The separate input will then be processed by the internal oscillator stage and output two different frequencies, at a previous selected output amplitude. The synthesizer works by mixing the two voltage inputs and then multiplying the resulting frequency by an integer to obtain the desired output frequency. An integrated fan-out buffer then distributes the processed signal to up to six outputs on the device.

The SI5338C-B05006-GMR offers a wide range of features that make it ideal for application-specific design. Its low jitter, synchronization, and precision make it an ideal choice for systems that require special, high-precision clock sources. Additionally, the integrated fan-out buffer allows for the distribution of the processed signal to up to six other outputs. The wide operating voltage range is adjustable between 2.5V to 3.3V and makes it a versatile solution for many high-precision application-specific requirements.
